Ramirent signs with Consto

Ramirent has signed a national cooperation agreement with Norwegian contractor Consto for the supply of rental equipment.

The three year equipment rental agreement includes an option to extend it for the following three years. As part of the agreement Consto will outsource all of its equipment and machinery requirements to Ramirent, which will acquire Consto’s equipment fleet and related assets.

Consto was founded in Tromsø in 2006 and operates in Oslo, Tromsø, Kirkenes, Narvik, Bodø as well as Ålesund.

Jarl Johansen of Consto said: “The strategy of Consto is to rent equipment rather than own it, but as a consequence of an earlier purchase the company owns equipment and machinery in Bodø. We have good experience of working together with Ramirent and see it as a natural next step to sign this cooperation agreement with them.”

Bjørn Larsen, managing director of Ramirent Norway added: “By outsourcing their machines to Ramirent customers can release tied-up capital and increase efficiency by using our wide range of rental equipment and related services for their projects.”
